T.D.L Plantation Trinidad Mezcal Cask (Luxembourg Shops) 2016
Smoky mezcal meets bright citrus here — grapefruit peel, lime, a minty menthol edge over a recognizable TDL column-still base. The mezcal and the original distillate share the stage without one steamrolling the other. Several tasters call it interesting and well-balanced, though a few wish it had more "Wumms" — more body and punch — and noted it reads a touch thin and could use more age.
- Mezcal-citrus balance
- Recognizable TDL base
- Bright grapefruit, lime

How does T.D.L Plantation Trinidad Mezcal Cask (Luxembourg Shops) 2016 taste?
Aggregated from 10 community reviews.
Smoky mezcal-citrus Trinidad, balanced but light A clever mezcal-and-Trinidad pairing that genuinely works. Most enjoy the citrus-and-smoke balance; the common gripe is it drinks a little thin and short, with a slightly hot finish.

Review by Michael Janek
citrus in the aroma, especially grapefruit peel the taste is brutal after a few seconds, it scratches the tongue like sandpaper, but then it passes and a pleasant fruity taste remains very impressive and intense 51%!
Review by zabo
Wow, what is that? What a cool thing that is. I've never had mescal finish in a glass before. Both the base and the finish are clearly recognizable. Neither really dominates. Both complement each other quite well. Possibly even better with a little more oomph. Thanks @TheDunderhut for the sample.
Review by Mirco
In contrast to other, diluted and cask finished Trinidad Distillers, the beautiful original distillate can still be clearly found here. The mezcal complements it. As a Trinidad fan, I really like this bottling. Slightly alcoholic finish as a drop of bitterness.
Review by Johannes
The mezcal influence is clearly present. The typical tdl profile can also be tasted. A little flat at the beginning. Could do with longer storage.
Review by Werni
An interesting combination that works well. Beautifully balanced nose. In the mouth first a slight sweetness with bitter orange, dry and towards the finish comes the barrel with roasted flavors. The whole thing is a little thin but still good. I am positively surprised.
